Longevity Thunder Ancestor

Chapter 1068 Negotiation
Several Nascent Soul cultivators, including Luo Feixuan, listened intently, only then realizing the inside story.

Of course, Tian Sheng Laoguai knew more information because Yue Long had once searched Ling Yuqing's soul.

Although Ling Yuqing did not know that Xuanling was the spirit of the nascent Xuantian Treasure, she did know that Si Chenxing had another formidable adversary, and the Nine Immortals Society naturally knew this as well.

Therefore, hearing what Ning Fa said at this moment gave him a sense of sudden realization.

Ning Fa continued, "Although Xuan Ling was eventually killed, Lord Si Chenxing also suffered serious injuries."

Her biggest goal is to bring the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool back to the Spirit Realm and find its master, the Abyss Ancestor.

However, she found it difficult to leave the Abyss Heavenly Pool, so she gave me this ancient star stone tablet, which was left by that Abyss Ancestor.

This ancient star stele contains a special visualization diagram. If one can decipher its mysteries, one can master profound stellar arts. With these arts, one can open special stellar passages and ascend to the upper realm.

This ancient star stele is actually the final reward of the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool Trial, which was originally intended by the Ancestral Ancestor to be left to his most outstanding clansmen.

Neither Lord Sichenxing nor Xuanling had previously been placed under a restriction by the Ancestral Ancestor, preventing them from privately comprehending this treasure.

After Ning Fa finished speaking, the four Nascent Soul cultivators were all shocked.

Although this is only Ning Fa's side of the story, it does sound reasonable.

The four Nascent Soul cultivators stared intently at it, their eyes already brimming with barely concealed elation.

Although Ning Fa did not specify Yuan Zu's realm, the fact that he possessed a small grotto-heaven like the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool was enough to demonstrate that his cultivation level had reached an incredible level.

Therefore, the value of this ancient star stele left by the ancestor is unimaginable.

Moreover, judging from the appearance alone, this ancient star stele is indeed extraordinary, and it does seem to be something that only a cultivator of that level could leave behind, which made them subconsciously believe Ning Fa's words.

Of course, the fact that Tianyi Jushi had predicted that there was a special treasure that could see through the weaknesses of the two realms gave the other three Nascent Soul cultivators a preconceived notion.

After all, they had great faith in the renowned Tianyi Hermit.

Now that Ningfa has indeed produced the mysterious object that matches his words, they subconsciously believe him.

Although Ning Fa's expression was solemn, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the expressions of the other Nascent Soul cultivators.

His statement just now represents the solution he has been considering for some time.

Although he was talking nonsense, this ancient star stele was a mysterious object that even the Great Ascension expert Yuan Zu could not see through. It would be easy to fool these Nascent Soul cultivators.

Of course, this ancient star stele is indeed an extraordinary treasure, and it would be a pity to hand it over.

However, given the current situation, it will be difficult to escape unscathed without demonstrating something substantial, so we must be willing to make sacrifices.

Especially since Ning Fa previously obtained two ancient star stone tablets, and what he has taken out now is only a slightly smaller one.

The other stone tablet has even denser and more complex star patterns, so its value must be greater than the one that was taken out.

It's definitely worth it to resolve this major crisis by paying this small amount now.

Of course, another key element is the Heavenly Treasure Immortal Merchant.

Without his threat, even if Ning Fa's words were completely true, these Nascent Soul cultivators would definitely capture him first and search his soul before making any further decisions.

Even Tianyi Jushi, who seems to be constantly spreading goodwill, is unlikely to be an exception, Ningfa believes.

It was precisely because Tianbao was there that Ningfa had the right to negotiate with them.

Thinking of this, Ning Fa deliberately pretended to be reluctant: "The situation is indeed as Senior Tianyi said. If I don't take out this ancient star stone tablet, I'm afraid we won't be able to resolve this peacefully."

Then it wouldn't be unreasonable for me to take it out, but..."

Upon hearing this, Tianyi Jushi smiled and said, "Young friend Ning, rest assured. As I just said, as long as you can share this ancient star stone tablet, you can make your demands, and we will do our best to meet them."

After speaking, he looked at Wen Yuchen, Fairy Linghua, and Tiansheng, and said in a deep voice:

"Fellow Daoists, you should also be able to represent the Nine Dragons Sea and the Heavenly Martial Immortal Cultivation World."

This ancient star stele is indeed extraordinary; it is probably not something that a single Nascent Soul cultivator could easily comprehend.

What we seek is nothing more than ascension to the upper realm. As long as we can comprehend it, this method of ascension should be usable in the future.

Therefore, we might as well cooperate and share this ancient star stele.

Of course, all three parties will do their best to meet Ning Xiaoyou's conditions.

Wen Yuchen and Fairy Linghua exchanged glances, then their lips moved slightly as they quickly communicated.

Immediately afterwards, Wen Yuchen nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist Tianyi is absolutely right. Regarding this matter, I can agree on behalf of the Tian Shu Alliance."

Tianyi Jushi smiled, then looked at Tiansheng Laoguai.

Tian Sheng Old Monster's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and then he sneered, "This matter is of great importance. Do you really think we can just believe this kid's side of the story? Who knows if he has obtained an even more powerful treasure from it?"

Ning Fa's heart tightened, and Tianbao Xianshang's gaze instantly sharpened. The golden ruler in front of him reappeared, shimmering with astonishing spiritual pressure.

Ning Fa also said in a deep voice, "If you seniors still don't believe me after I've said this much, then there's nothing I can do."

But if you want me to obediently surrender and let you search my soul, I would rather die than agree to that.

Tian Sheng Old Monster snorted coldly: "We can refuse to search your soul, but you need to take out everything in your storage ring and let us see it."

Upon hearing this, both Wen Yuchen and Fairy Linghua's eyes flashed, clearly showing their interest.

But Ning Fa laughed and said, "Old monster Tiansheng, come and take it if you dare! Anyway, I'll definitely destroy this ancient star stele before I die!"

As he spoke, Ning Fa's right hand, which was gripping the ancient star stone tablet, crackled with fierce lightning.

Upon seeing this, the four Nascent Soul cultivators' expressions immediately changed.

Although they did not believe that Ningfa could destroy the things left behind by such a powerful person, if there was any damage and they were unable to comprehend the method of ascension from it in the future, wouldn't that be a loss?

At this moment, Tianyi Jushi looked at Tiansheng Laoguai and snorted coldly: "Tiansheng, are you perhaps blinded by greed?"
Even if young friend Ning obtained other treasures in the Mingyuan Heavenly Pool, how could they compare to ascending to the Upper Realm for us?

I am quite certain that this ancient star stone tablet is indeed the strange object I divined before.

Now that young friend Ning has willingly brought it out, you shouldn't be so greedy, or don't blame me for being impolite!

At this point, a mysterious gray aura began to emanate from Tianyi Jushi, and an extremely dangerous aura emanated from him.

Tian Sheng Laoguai's expression immediately changed, and he retreated several feet.

At this moment, Ning Fa's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said in a deep voice, "It is normal that the seniors cannot fully believe what the juniors say."

Although I cannot allow you to search my soul at will, I swear that this ancient star stone tablet is indeed the most precious item I obtained in the Abyss Heavenly Pool. If I am lying in the slightest, may my cultivation be forever halted!

As soon as Ning Fa finished speaking, a hazy gray mist appeared out of thin air, swirled around him for a while, and then a strange aura emanated from it before disappearing.

Tian Sheng, Wen Yuchen, and Fairy Linghua all showed a slight change in expression at first, but then they all relaxed.

At this point, they had no doubts about what Ning Fa had said, since the higher a cultivator's cultivation level, the stronger the binding force of such an oath.

Unbeknownst to them, at this moment, within Ning Fa's sea of ​​consciousness, there was a black stone figure that looked remarkably similar to him. Its eyes were open, and wisps of gray mist swirled around it. Then, the stone figure disappeared into his sea of ​​consciousness.

Seeing that the stone figure had taken effect, Ning Fa breathed a sigh of relief.

This item is called the Nightmare Substitute Stone Puppet, a very precious substitute for calamity. Its special feature is that it can even bear the backlash of a cultivator's inner demon oath.

This spiritual item was one of the spiritual items listed in the jade slip that Tianbao Immortal Merchant had taken out when he wanted to exchange it for Star River Essence Dew and top-grade water spirit stones.

Ning Fa would never allow these Nascent Soul cultivators to search his soul. If he took out the Ancient Star Stone Tablet and made a vow to his inner demons, those Nascent Soul cultivators would no longer have any doubts, saving him a lot of trouble.

Therefore, even if Ningfa spent a drop of Star River Essence to exchange for it, it was still worthwhile.

Moreover, he said that this ancient star stele was the most precious thing he obtained in Tianchi, and perhaps that's not wrong.

At this moment, Tianyi Jushi said in a deep voice, "Young friend Ning, since you are so understanding, then you may state your conditions."

As long as it's not too outrageous, I will do my best to help you achieve it.

Upon hearing this, Ning Fa's eyes flickered.

He had anticipated this for some time.

Even if the ancient star stone tablet is brought out, it will not be handed over for nothing; a price must be demanded. Therefore, what Tianyi Jushi said was exactly what he wanted.

He coughed lightly and said, "This junior does have a few requests."

First and foremost, the seniors must promise that once you have fully comprehended the mysteries and obtained the method to ascend to the spirit realm, you must share it with your juniors.

Furthermore, you must also guarantee that if you ascend to the Spirit Realm in the future, you will use this item to find that Ancestral Ancestor.

"After all, this is something I promised Lord Si Chenxing. Now that you have obtained this ancient star stone tablet, you must fulfill this promise."

"That's certainly not a problem."

Tianyi Jushi was the first to respond, and the other Nascent Soul cultivators also showed slight changes in their expressions, clearly having no objections.

"My second request is that I happen to have a large number of urgently needed cultivation resources, which are contained in these two jade slips. I hope that you seniors can provide them."

As Ning Fa spoke, he tossed two jade slips that he had prepared beforehand in front of several Nascent Soul cultivators.

The Nascent Soul cultivators initially didn't think much of it, since with their wealth and the power behind them, they felt that satisfying Ning Fa's demands should be a piece of cake.

But when they scanned it with their divine senses, their expressions immediately changed.

One of the jade slips was alright, although most of them were spiritual items of the third rank or above, and they were all the kind with wide uses, and the number of them was extremely large.

For example, Foundation Establishment Pills require a thousand pills, Crystal Condensation Pills require a hundred pills, and there are also many third-order spirit ores that can be used as the main material for magic weapons, which often weigh tens or hundreds of kilograms.

Such a quantity is enough to empty the coffers of a large sect, but for these Nascent Soul cultivators, it is naturally insignificant.

However, the items listed on the other jade slip caused these Nascent Soul cultivators to slightly change their expressions.

All of them were at least fourth-tier spiritual items. For example, the requirement for Nascent Soul Pills was thirty, and there were many other spiritual items that could assist in forming a Nascent Soul. These were considered ordinary items in this jade slip.

The key point is that a considerable portion of them are extremely precious fifth-tier spiritual items, which are rare and hard to come by even for Nascent Soul cultivators like them.

It can be said that the value of the spiritual items listed in this jade slip is such that even a Nascent Soul sect would go bankrupt for them, let alone a Divine Transformation sect.

"Kid, don't try to ask for too much, or you'll break your teeth!" Old Monster Tiansheng said angrily.

Wen Yuchen also frowned slightly. Although the Tian Shu Alliance was powerful, it would be very difficult for them to produce the items listed in this jade slip.

Ning Fa, however, remained expressionless and said, "This junior does not think it is excessive."

After all, this ancient star stele was left by that ancestor Yuanzu, and it may contain the ancestor's inheritance. Its value cannot be measured by spirit stones or other spiritual objects.

To be honest, I feel like I've been taken advantage of, since I might have missed out on a tremendous opportunity because of it.

Tianyi Jushi stroked his beard and said, "Young friend Ning is right. The value of such a treasure is unimaginable, and it is only right that we make some compensation."

Besides, these things weren't contributed by us alone; when divided among the major powers, it's not too bad.

The others' expressions softened slightly.

Ning Fa's eyes flashed, and he continued, "Moreover, this is a one-time deal for me. Other Nascent Soul seniors will definitely come to you in the future. Whatever they ask for from them at that time will have nothing to do with me."

Upon hearing this, Wen Yuchen and the others' expressions changed.

Tianyi Jushi laughed heartily and said, "Young friend Ning has a clear understanding."

However, young friend Ning, some of these items may have become extinct in our realm. Do you think you could replace them with other spiritual objects or spirit stones?

Ning Fa thought for a moment and said, "Okay, but I must get my hands on 90% of the spiritual resources. You can use spirit stones instead of the remaining 10%, but they must be high-grade spirit stones."

After a moment's thought, Tianyi Jushi nodded and said, "I think there's no problem. What do you fellow Daoists think?"

Wen Yuchen and Tiansheng Laoguai both nodded after a moment's thought.

At this moment, Ning Fa looked at Wen Yuchen and said in a deep voice, "This junior has a third request."

I am now the Lord of the Fuling Palace, which is currently under siege by Yan Jingchen of Leiyu Mountain and is in a difficult situation.

Therefore, I hope that the Tian Shu Alliance can stop his behavior and publicly allow the existence of the Fu Ling Palace.

Furthermore, I think the Black Star Islands, located between the Bright Sky Sea and the Nightless Sea, are quite nice, and I hope the Heavenly Pivot Alliance will allow the Spirit-Subduing Hall to own these islands.

After a moment's thought, Wen Yuchen understood Ning Fa's intention.

After all, Ning Fa now has Tianbao's protection and is not afraid of Yan Jingchen's troubles at all. His main goal is to get the Tian Shu Alliance to officially recognize the existence of Fu Ling Palace so that Fu Ling Palace can openly operate in the Nine Dragons Sea.

As for Ning Fa demanding the Black Star Islands, Wen Yuchen was slightly surprised, but he didn't take it seriously, because in his eyes, this place was just a useless place.

Without much hesitation, he nodded and said, "That's no problem either."

As long as the Fuling Palace does not oppose our Tian Shu Alliance in the future, our alliance can allow its existence, and I can also agree to the Black Star Islands. Of course, all of this is only valid during the period when Young Friend Ning serves as the Palace Master of the Fuling Palace.
